How to secure excellence in all the academic institutions of India?

By Sujayendra Das

Excellence in top academic institutions of India is always rated as top priority. This is not just for the sake of preaching because the cream of Indian citizens will take this message from different experts causally. This thought needs to be explored deeply. But how to proceed on this count so that excellence can be achieved at all the academic institutions based all over India. The problem which Indian academic institutions face nowadays is that there is too much of political interference which is not at all called for. There should be political thoughts among teachers and students but no political interference on the institutions concerned is desirable. In this regard there are some reputed intellectuals who always propagated for autonomy of the reputed academic institutions which are based all around India. Pity part is that political fraternities are totally callous about the call by the intellectuals.
Logic behind calling for autonomy in all the academic institutions of India:
The reputed intellectuals of India have been calling for autonomy in all the higher academic institutions of India for a pretty long time. There is definitely logic behind it. It is for quite some time we find that political interference and upheaval are grossly eating up the positives of all the reputed academic institutions of India. Now we find that all around the country whatever the academic institutions are available there are too much of political interference. On account of this reason pure academic atmosphere is badly getting maligned which ultimately leads to severe coercion between the students union vis-à-vis with the teaching faculties of the said institution. We cannot find any fault of the part of the intellectuals in recommending for autonomy of all the reputed academic institutions. If we retrace back around 50 to 60 years back then we will find from the pages of academic history of India then we evince that there were total calm and serene atmosphere existed in all the reputed academic institutions of India. Now the way the operations of those institutions taking place stands highly shocking and sharply critical. In most of the academic bodies of India we find that there are political personnel involved in the management but the management should be purely apolitical one. That is why it can be uttered without a trace of doubt all the reputed academic bodies of India should immediately call for purely apolitical one.
How to ensure autonomy in all the academic institutions of India?
We are well aware that there are various processes by which Indians can ensure autonomy in all the academic institutions of India. Some of them are stated as follow:
Abolishing political interference from the mainstream of all academic institutions based all over India.
The government of India must recruit academic personnel of different academic disciplines in the academic bodies to help in the proper management of the companies concerned.
All the personnel involved in all the academic institutions of India should be allowed work without any trace of interference.
Teacher's recruitment in all the academic institutions of India should be done on purely apolitical ground.
Despite autonomy conferred upon different autonomous institutions of India no political disturbance should be allowed to operate within the precincts of the academic institutions concerned.
Same way students should be recruited by all the academic institutions of India the same way as that of the teachers.
Summing up all the above stated views we find that political interference in all the academic institutions of India should be abolished forever instantly. Otherwise there is no chance for the retracing back of serene atmosphere in all the academic institutions of India. Hope better sense will prevail among us one day in this regard.
